feature: Heineken wants to Serenade you!

Or rather, they want you to serenade your loved ones… yes. That’s more accurate. I’m sure they’d sing to you if you asked them to though. Well, maybe. Anyway, obviously this is a little different from my usual posts. It’s a sponsored post but then I wouldn’t write about it if I thought it was [...]

movie news: First Trailer for Step-Up 4!

I know this is just what you’ve been waiting for… You’ve been sat there thinking, Step Up 4 is coming out in State at the end of July and I still haven’t seen a trailer for it. Well folks, the wait is over. It’s finally here! Hmm… actually, it’s not really a trailer. It’s an [...]

feature: The Woman in Black – YouTube Ghost Story competition

A while ago, I did a clips and trailers post for The Woman in Black. It looks like a good old fashioned ghost story and I’m very much looking forward to it, I honestly thought that teaser trailer was one of the scariest things I’ve seen in a long time. I’m a big horror fan [...]

feature: 84th Academy Award Nominees ballot form

So, how has the Awards season made you feel this year? Happy? Sad? Angry? Indifferent?

New operators, Element Pictures, say they plan to screen the best of international art house and Irish cinema, as well as re-runs of classics [...]

clips and trailers: Moonrise Kingdom (2012)

If you’ve ever read my top 10 films of the decade post, you’ll know that I’m a huge Wes Anderson fan. Ok, ok, I’ll admit. The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou wasn’t his best work… but I thoroughly enjoyed The Darjeeling Limited and Fantastic Mr. Fox (review) so all is soon forgiven. Well, Thursday was [...]

feature: top 10 films of 2011

Little late this year but hey, better late than never right? Right?? On the whole, I don’t think 2011 was a great year for cinema. There were some great films sure but I struggled to get 10 films to be honest. I should probably preface this by saying that I managed to miss 3 of [...]

clips and trailers: John Carter (2012)

Traditionally, I haven’t expected sci-fi epics from Walt Disney Pictures but after TRON: Legacy (a movie which really deserved to be seen by more people, damn snow!) that view has had to change. The Mouse, it seems, is happy to go to seek out that final frontier… … Not that this has anything to do [...]

movie club feature: Film Fatale at The Sugar Club

As you may or may not realise, Ireland has a bit of a love affair with cinema. We have one of the highest per capita cinema admissions figures in the world and I’m sure you’ve noticed, we talk about films all the time. What you may not also realise is that there are a great [...]

clips and trailers: Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol (2011)

A new Mission: Impossible film hey? I can’t say I was enamoured with the idea. I hated the first Mission: Impossible film. Hated it. Somehow I ended up going to see it in the cinema 3 times that summer, so my hatred of it became properly ingrained. I never saw the other two. I didn’t [...]
